Via Ferrata de l'Aiguille de Pra Loup
A challenging yet rewarding via ferrata experience on the Aiguille de Pra Loup, offering breathtaking views of the Ubaye Valley. This route is known for its exposed sections, ladders, and cable bridges, providing an exhilarating climb for those with a good head for heights. While requiring a certain level of physical fitness and no fear of heights, it is accessible to equipped adventurers. It is distinct from the 'Roche Rousse' via ferrata. Recommended season is late spring to early autumn (June-October), avoiding periods of snow or ice. Full via ferrata equipment (helmet, harness, lanyards) is mandatory and can be rented in resort shops. Guided ascents are also available through local mountain guides. The estimated time to complete is 2.5-3.5 hours, depending on experience.
